Backdrop - I don't like the Win XP look. So I have elected to have the 'Classic look'.

Every time I do a 'Cleaner' operation with the History option selected, CCleaner (1.40.520) finds
C:\Documents and Settings\<my name>\Local Settings\History\History.IE5\desktop.ini 113 bytes

If I delete this - next re-boot time I'm back to square one with the XP look.

For now, I have unselected the 'History' option, to stop this from happening. However, it means I cannot clean up other legitimate gunk belonging to this category.

Anyone else? I'm quite sure this is a 'bug' - as the desktop.ini file is not something you clean up every session.
